With the advent of the new year, Hindustan Petroleum (HP) has launched its Ezy Gas Card, which will ensure that the customer gets optimum delivery services anywhere in the city, without having to rely on the updates by the hawkers.

Approximately 1.4 lakh customers of HP Gas across the city and in the nearby rural areas will be provided the Ezy Gas Card, through their distributor, says Devendra Bhanawat, of Bathera Gas Agency. He also added that many customers are already using the services in the city.

Sachin Joshi, area head for HP Gas said that the customer will be able to pay online as well as through the PoS machine, using his Adhaar, Credit Card, Debit Card, ATM Card as well as UPI. On booking the cylinder, a URL will be sent to the registered mobile number, through which the payment can be made.

The need for maintaining a coupon diary will no longer be requried, as the Petroleum Ministry has asked all nodal agencies and gas agencies across all principal companies to adopt the PoS and Ezy Gas card system.

How it works Distributor will provide the Ezy Gas Card to its customers.  The cost of the card is Rs 20/-. The cylinder hawker will be provided with a PoS machine, and when a delivery is made, the customer will simply swipe the card on the PoS, which will update both the distributor as well as the head office of a successful delivery.
